I detest the fact that you can have two polar opposite calls on the same play and have to report both.

No, I was not being facetious at all. The rule of thumb you just stated still puts the ultimate call, not up to a subjective determination, but on the egos of the officials involved....some (not all, but some, maybe only a few) will "expand" their primaries just to keep the call even when they may be completely wrong.
